Seattle Supersonics: Getting The Band Back Together

Like many Sonics fans, I haven't paid attention to the NBA since 2008. I have always been, and will always be, a Seattle-centric basketball fan. So if I was in charge of putting together an expansion roster for Supersonics 2.0, I would, of course, go to what I know, which are former Sonics.

After doing a quick bit of research on the interwebs, here are all the former Seattle Supersonics that are still active in the NBA. (Note: I left off thoseguys from That Team I Will Never Mention because I will never, ever, ever, never mention them on this blog, even if we get another team. They're like one of those rogue countries that aren't recognized by the United Nations.)

No love for Mickael Gelabale? Gelly's balling in Minnesota now - alongside Luke Ridnour. When they played the Nets last week, you had Reggie Evans, Luke Ridnour and Mickael Gelabale all on the same court. Sonictastic!

Oh man, Noel Felix--the very, very poor man's Derek McKey! You are the INTERPOL of basketball, Pete! I assumed Danny Fortson would be over there somewhere too, but he seems to have dropped off the face of the earth.

...The Pittsburgh Basketball Club will induct its fourth hall of fame class at a brunch at the Double Tree Hotel in Moon.

The class of 2012 will feature honorees in the divisions of coaches, contributors, distinguished community service as well as the newly founded “Legends Division,” which will pay homage to local standouts Jarrett Durham (Aliquippa/Duquesne), ... Danny Fortson (Shaler/Cincinnati), ....

Event takes place this Saturday. Fingers crossed photographers are there!
